Westside Children's Therapy | Schaumburg

At Westside Children’s Therapy in Schaumburg, we understand that it can be difficult to determine if your child needs speech therapy. If your child is autistic, speech therapy is almost always recommended to help them with social communication. Even if your child is verbal and talks a lot, they may still need to work on communication skills like responding to questions, changing conversation topics, using gestures, and understanding other people’s body language. Speech therapy is a critical part of early intervention for children on the autism spectrum, and it’s important to start as early as possible. If your child is struggling with speaking, they may be very quiet, say only a few words, or not talk at all. To help you understand if your child needs speech therapy, we’ve put together a complete guide to everything you need to know. Visit Westside Children’s Therapy in Schaumburg for more information.
